Last month, the Trump administration began following through with a March threat of tariffs on tens of billions of dollars of imported Chinese goods, prompting China to respond with retaliatory levies on high-value US exports such as soybeans.

The country saw a 4.1 percent increase in exports compared with May, reaching 50.7 billion Canadian dollars (roughly 39 billion US dollars), due to spiked exports of energy products and aircraft.

Statscan noted that exports to the USA of Canadian steel products subject to the new tariffs plunged 37 per cent in June, after having surged 40 per cent over the prior three months.

Canada's largest trading partner, the United States, was the destination for a record $37.1 billion of exports, up 2.5 per cent - mainly because of passenger cars and light trucks.

Rising oil prices also boosted the value of American crude exports, which were the highest on record at $20.4 billion.

The United States ran goods deficits in June of $33.5 billion with China, up 0.9 per cent from May; $7.4 billion with Mexico, up 10.5 per cent; and $2 billion with Canada, up 39.7 per cent.

Soybean exports remained strong in June.

Canada imported products worth $51.3 billion in June, despite increases in seven of 11 product sections.
